The disclosure relates to a capsule filling machine for filling two-piece capsules that each include a capsule upper part and a capsule lower part. The capsule filling machine includes a measuring device, the measuring device including a capacitive measuring system. The measuring device is downstream of the closing station. The capacitive measuring system includes a measuring section, along which the mass of the filled, closed capsule can be measured via the capacitive measuring system. The measuring device includes a guide device for the closed capsule, the guide device being configured to convey the filled, closed capsule from the capsule segment to the measuring section of the capacitive measuring system.

A capsule filling machine for filling capsules and a cleaning unit for use in a capsule filling machine are disclosed. The capsule filling machine includes at least two processing paths with a plurality of processing stations. One of the processing stations includes a cleaning unit. The cleaning unit has, for each of the at least two processing paths, a leadthrough path with a longitudinal axis for leading through capsules. At least one cleaning element for cleaning the capsules is arranged on each leadthrough path.

A calibration unit is for a capacitive measuring system in a metering installation, or a metering installation for in particular solid pharmaceutical dosage units, and to an associated method for metering. The calibration unit includes a test body, a drive for the test body, and a guide for the test body. The guide has a first terminal position, a second terminal position, and a guided section that runs between the two terminal positions. The drive is configured for moving the test body along the guided section in a reciprocating manner between the two terminal positions. The capacitive measuring system is calibrated via the calibration unit. The dosage units are then metered via the metering installation and checked for a properly metered mass via the calibrated capacitive measuring system.
